Ya know, I ❤️ Mastodon because I actually get to see art by artists I can’t see anywhere else. Because they’re usually buried underneath an algorithm that serves only to make money for the platform.
I wouldn’t have discovered SO MANY genuine, talented, authentic, smaller-scale artists anywhere else. Because I’d never have seen them. Because those sites only privilege success.
You want to find new art? Fresh artists? Raw talent? Look on Mastodon.
